    I personally think that's exactly what we should be doing in this terrible time. We're a club owned by a billionaire, it's a drop in the ocean for him and morally it's the right thing to do, Gunnersaurus is a victim of circumstances and after 27 years of service he deserves better, the decision is made all the more ridiculous when we go out and spend 45 million not long after getting rid of him.

    No excuse for me, it's a nasty thing to do by a club who care about one thing and one thing only, that's not the right way to run a company IMO, you can make money without stamping on the little man inthe process, this club has shown it's true colours with the redundancies and it's actions, everything is about money and it's no surprise we're failures on the pitch.

    The kids should be looking up to players like Saka, he's a great role model for young aspiring kids who want to make it at Arsenal and break into the National team No?
    I'm not sure there's anyone we should admire, Arteta got a job at a big club (no other big club would have touched him let's be honest), earning big money, he'd have been crazy to turn it down so it's wasn't a hard decision.

    As for the others, that's what they're paid for, paid handsomely for without having done much in many cases, it's not like it was 20-30 years ago where people played for the love of game, it's a different time when money talks.

    There's nothing to admire in modern football IMO.
